Luca Lo Pinto (Ed.)

Are there any limits to what an exhibition can be? Investigating and reformulating the
conventional structure and limitations of exhibition-making and curatorial authorship is
the focus of One, No One and One Hundred Thousand. The softcover newsprint style
catalog documenting the experimental exhibition at Kunsthalle Wien, Karlsplatz in 2016,
was curated by Luca Lo Pinto and was inspired by the work of Oulipo, a literary collective
whose approach to writing was to propose new “structures” that were mathematical in
nature. Nine contributing artists including Darren Bader, Jason Dodge, Phanos Kyriacou,
Adriana Lara, Jonathan Monk, Marlie Mul, Amalia Pica, Martin Soto Climent and Lina Viste
Grønli created new works in displays that offer an unlimited number of arrangements since
they can be changed by any number of visitors. The viewer is not treated as a consumer,
but as a co-producer alongside the artists and the curator. Recorded in the black-and-white
publication are 178 unique exhibitions, with essays by Luca Lo Pinto, Vanessa Joan Muller
and Mathieu Copeland.
